Today, actually this afternoon, when I took these pictures we were having a torrential downpour, and I mean pouring!! So the light was dull,

but that's OK. I can work with dull.

All I need is one of my white linen European covers, a cereal box to hole up the back drop and hide my sink, yes that's right, I took these on my sink while the Lasagna was cooking, Tina's star, my postcode covered box, linen ribbon, mason jar full of lights and a small string of fairy lights and away we go. You can see my kitchen window winder there in the background.

(Oh, and there are some of the smaller snowflakes there on the box)

I took a long shot, so you could see the reality of the kitchen sink photo shoot!

Oh Sweetheart! I am so delighted you've taken the plunge. Don't fret - it took me about 3 days for all my blogroll etc to migrate over from blogspot so don't despair. It *will* work out! I am just so proud of you. And Picnik is my best friend - give me a hoy is you need a hand! J x

I just found your blog via a link on pinterest. i love your work! I was just curious if you could tell me where i might could find some old text looking stamps like you use to stamp your earthenware. I am sure these are available everywhere...but I'm not sure where to look. I'd like to use them for paper crafts but just not sure where to start. Thank you (and sorry...i'm sure this is kind of a dumb question :P)!
